If you don’t know Yamaha Unified Communications, the plan is that you will after InfoComm 2018. During the trade show, June 4-6 in Las Vegas, Yamaha UC is planning a coming-out party of sorts, with new products and speaking sessions to showcase UC expertise.

The manufacturer says it will demonstrate the latest solutions in the market-leading Yamaha UC portfolio at its booth N1227 and will lead a special InfoComm 2018 session on artificial intelligence (AI) and be part of panel discussions within the IMCCA UCC program.

“The unified communications industry is very exciting right now,” says Mick Kamihara, chief executive officer, Yamaha Unified Communications.

“InfoComm 2018 is a great opportunity for us to share what we’re seeing in the industry and how to capitalize on this emerging market. We’ll also launch our next initiative and new products in the Yamaha UC family that will enable success for users as they navigate this new landscape.”

The Reality of Artificial Intelligence in the Enterprise Communications Environment

UC Ecosystems and the Millennial Workflow

Thursday June 7, 3 – 4 p.m., Westgate Hotel, Pavilion 1

In recent years collaboration technologies have begun to move away from discrete tools and toward the support of seamless workflows. Applications such as Slack, Spark, and Teams not only require the users to understand the technology, but require a change to the way one works, supporting this workflow beyond the meeting.

Fitch of Yamaha Unified Communications will join this presentation and discuss what this will mean for organizations.
